Chapter 22: Concentric

(Thank you for the support of Little Artillery 085, Lan Donghao, and SRQG, thank you!) )

----------------------------

Ling Yun just wanted to get drunk in one go, and then woke up drunk and found that he was still lying on the painting boat in Yangzhou, where he was just a drunken dream.

However, Gao Qianxue didn't want to see her new husband get drunk, so she reached out and grabbed the wine bag and threw it back to its owner. Ling Yun wanted to protest, and even wanted to shout at Gao Qianxue. But when he thought of his noble status as a princess, and the more than 200 fierce anti-government armed elements around him, he was immediately deflated.

Gao Qianxue evacuated Gaojiazhuang and summoned her followers, who all came one after another. In just the middle of the night, more than 200 warriors had already arrived with swords, guns, swords, and shields. And that's just a small part of it. Just now, Gao Mingyue told him that they had a thousand soldiers in Liuhe County. In Yangzhou, as many as 3,000 people can be mobilized and armed, and these people are usually distributed in various farms and shops controlled by Gaojia, and these people have a normal identity on the surface, either as tenants of the farm, or as guards as shop men. Of course, in addition, there are also some warriors of the Gao family, who are arranged near the rivers and roads of Yangzhou, to act as bandits and water cowards, to inquire about contact information, and the power used at critical times.

Thousands of private soldiers are a great force for Ling Yun, but for the imperial court, and even for those high-ranking families in the south of the Yangtze River, it is not uncommon. Which big family's private soldiers don't add up to a hundred thousand people? If it was before the Sui destroyed Nan Chen, these powerful people in the south of the Yangtze River would have been thousands of slaves and servants.

"After tonight, it is impossible for us to stay in Yangzhou anymore." Gao Qianxue took a sip of honey water and said softly.

Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years, and their identity makes her have to be cautious. Perhaps Gao Ding's injury does not necessarily mean that the imperial court has discovered their identities. But in order to be careful, in this case, Gao Qianxue finally chose to move immediately. This transfer, such a big change, will inevitably not be able to be hidden all the time, and it will not be long before the change here will be discovered by the government, and then more secrets may be traced.

Ling Yun said casually with some absent-mindedness: "Then where are we going?" ”

"Back to the North!" Gao Qianxue replied.

"Why did Gauding get hurt?" Ling Yun turned his head to look at Gao Qianxue, whether he wanted to or not, he had already fallen into this quagmire at this time. Ling Yun didn't want to complain, after all, Gao Qianxue saved him at the beginning, and later gave him a chance to leave. It was he who chose to leave, and now no one can blame him for such a situation. Besides, he's not the kind of person who likes to regret. So far, what can be done is not to complain and regret, but how to solve trouble. In this case, he hopes that he can participate, even if he is a rebel and thief, even if he knows that he may die, he also hopes to be a person who understands, instead of losing his head in a daze.

Ling Yun's expression fell in Gao Qianxue's eyes, which made her a little surprised and surprised.

"Now, the concubine doesn't plan to hide it from her husband anymore. In fact, we went south to Jiangnan in order to contact the heroes in Jiangnan to oppose Sui together. After a year, someone finally wanted to cooperate with us, and this time Gao Ding went to welcome that friend's messenger. Gao Ding brought fifty Zhuang Ding to pick up people, but the matter was extremely secret, but he didn't think that in the end, Gao Ding was seriously injured and returned. The concubines were worried that the news had leaked out, and Gao Ding and they were intercepted by the imperial court. ”

Ling Yun nodded, "Could it be that friend of yours betrayed you in the end?" ”

Gao Qianxue glanced at Ling Yun appreciatively: "What the husband said is also reasonable, whether the government has discovered them, or they have betrayed us, now that the situation is unclear, we can't sit idly by." Shifting locations and gathering people is preparing for the worst. ”

"Well, I'm glad you told me about this!" Ling Yun stretched out his hand to hold Gao Qianxue's jade-like hand, which was slightly cool, soft and boneless. Although the two were already husband and wife in name, this was the first time Ling Yun had intimate contact with her except for the contact when he breathed that day. Gao Qianxue didn't look very shy, but generously let Ling Yun hold her hand, she breathed a sigh of relief, she was originally very worried that Ling Yun would have a very bad reaction after knowing her identity, and even after knowing her current situation, she would have a more reaction. Unexpectedly, he was just lost for a while, and then he had already changed his mood, and even began to seriously think about and deal with this matter.

"Actually, you didn't have to bear that. I have a national enmity and a family hatred with the Sui family, but you are different. It's a head-to-head business, and you don't have to take the risk. If you want to leave now, I will not force you to stay. Although he has passed three books and six rituals, he has not yet formally worshiped the church, nor has he entered the cave room. If you want to leave, I can return the marriage certificate, and this marriage will not count. I'll make the others forget about you, as if you never showed up. Even if we fall into the hands of the imperial court in the future, we will never implicate you. ”

Ling Yun lowered his head directly, kissed Gao Qianxue's red lips like rose petals, and blocked her back words.

This sudden kiss caught Gao Qianxue off guard, she was a little stunned, and she didn't even know how to react. Growing so big, this is the second time she has kissed a man, in fact, this is the first time she has kissed a man when she is sober. Although she was also kissed by Ling Yun when she drowned last time, she only heard Mulan tell her afterwards, and she didn't feel it at all. But now it was different, it was a real kiss, it kissed her so suddenly, she could feel his manly breath, the smell of man's body fragrance, and even feel the breath from his nose lapping on her face.

That moist, warm feeling, that's the kiss.

Her heart beat sharply, her fair face quickly flew two red glows, her whole body began to stiffen, and then began to soften again, she felt that she was about to stand unsteadily, and she was about to fall.

She couldn't help but stretch out her hands to hug him so that she wouldn't fall to the ground, and then she immediately remembered, God, this is in full view, although it is night, but under the light of this bonfire, it is no different from daytime. At the thought of two people doing such an intimate thing under the gaze of so many people, she was suddenly ashamed and almost went into the ground. At this time, she no longer has the grace she just had. Some are just the shyness of the youngest daughter, she gasped hard, and said to Ling Yun: "Don't, don't do this"

Seeing the other side of Gao Qianxue's little girlhood, Ling Yun suddenly felt better. He didn't embarrass her anymore and finally let her go. In fact, it was just an ordinary kiss, or even just lips touching, and he didn't even stick out his tongue, let alone the two kissed wetly, and their tongues lingered. However, looking at the shallow snow that had quickly shrunk his head into his chest until this time, he finally realized that he had forgotten the transformation of time and space just now. This is the Great Sui Dynasty, even if the atmosphere of the Sui and Tang dynasties is open, but such a thing of kissing in public is still a little too unrestrained, even if they are newlyweds. He secretly glanced to the side and looked a few times, and sure enough, he found that although those guys had not found anything on the surface, they could still see the slight unnaturalness on their faces under the firelight. Even some guys are so painful that they can't help but shout.

Ling Yun pretended to cough a few times, which was considered to be a coping situation.

Reaching out and grabbing the high and shallow snow that had been making a quail shape with his head down, Ling Yun said softly: "Don't say those stupid things anymore, and don't allow you to say them again." You are my wife who officially greeted me with three books and six ceremonies, and you will be my wife no matter what time it is in the future. And I, too, will always be your husband, and will never change. Whether you are a small landowner's wife in Gaojiazhuang or Her Royal Highness the princess of Daqi, you are my wife, and you will never leave in this life. ”

"You're the landlord's wife!" Gao Qianxue scolded in a low voice, stretched out her jade hand and lightly hammered Ling Yun's chest, in that state, how could there be half a princess's cold appearance. "Why else I'm your wife, where did the weird words come from, it's not serious."

"Wife, even if you become an old woman with no hair and teeth lost in the future, I will always be by your side. At that time, you were an old woman, I was my husband, you called me husband, I called you wife! ”

"Husband, wife!" Light snow murmured softly.

"Wife!" Ling Yun called in a low voice.

"Old husband!"

"Hey!" Ling Yun happily responded.

"You call me too." Gao Qianxue said in a low voice, her words shy.

"Wife!"

"Hmm!"

The simple name made the two immediately close a lot of distance, and at this moment, the two were intimate.

The two simple titles of husband and wife, at this time, are far better than the titles of princess and colt in Qianxue's heart. This belongs only to the two of them, and really belongs only to the husband and wife.

The galloping sound of horses' hooves interrupted the couple's affection.

Several fighters on guard on the periphery galloped over with a horse, "It's the head of the high team who has returned." ”

"Which high leader?" Someone stood up around the campfire and shouted.

"Gao Yi, Gao Yi team leader!"

Before the words fell, Gao Yi had already ridden his horse and rushed to the bonfire, he hurriedly stopped the horse, and the black horse's front hooves were raised, and he neighed. As soon as the horse stopped, Gao Yi had already flown down.

Ling Yun had already run over with Gao Qianxue, Gao Yi was covered in dust and night dew, and when he saw Gao Qianxue, he immediately shouted: "Miss, I'm back." ”

"It's good to come back, what's going on outside now, have you found the brothers who are with Gao Ding?"

"Found it, a good news and a bad news, which one does the eldest lady want to listen to first?"

PS: It's Monday again, the new week begins, last week's ranking stopped at twenty-four, this week brothers work harder, let's hit a new high!
